Health Care Reform: The President's Speech
September 9, 2009 — President Obama spoke to a joint session of Congress tonight, outlining a clear plan to achieve health insurance reform. "We did not come here to fear the future," Obama said, "we came to shape it." Senator Dick Durbin commented on the president's speech, saying "At the end of the day, we can't wait for those who are determined to stop our progress. We've got to have health care reform good enough for this great nation."
